Similarly, the release this year of “The Kerala Story,” about a Hindu girl who is lured into joining ISIS, angered critics who called it a propaganda film that demonized Muslims.Īhead of the release of “Oppenheimer,” Murphy said he read the Bhagvad Gita in preparation. ![]() Last year, filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri’s box office smash “The Kashmir Files,” based on the mass exodus of Kashmiri Hindus as they fled violent Islamic militants in the 1990s, polarized India, with some hailing the film as “gut-wrenching” and “truthful,” while others criticized it for being Islamophobic and inaccurate. 'Oppenheimer' unleashes Christopher Nolan on the 'father' of the atomic bomb Meanwhile, analysts and film critics say there has been a shift in the tone of some Indian films, with nationalist and Islamophobic narratives gaining support from many within India, as well as the BJP.Ĭillian Murphy in "Oppenheimer" Universal Pictures That same year, Indian jewelry brand Tanishq withdrew an advert featuring an interfaith couple following online criticism. (NFLX) received significant backlash in India for a scene in the series “A Suitable Boy” that depicted a Hindu woman and Muslim man kissing at a Hindu temple. Some have been boycotted or even forced off air following outcry from conservative and radical groups. This isn’t the first time that the Hindu-right has taken offense to films, television shows or commercials for its portrayal of Hinduism. There are so far no bans on the film in any of the country’s states and union territories. India’s film board gave “Oppenheimer” a U/A rating, which is reserved for movies that contain moderate adult themes and can be watched by children under 12 with parental guidance. “Oppenheimer” grossed more than $3 million in its opening weekend in the country, according to local reports, higher than filmmaker Greta Gerwig’s highly anticipated “Barbie,” which released on the same day and grossed just over $1 million.

The film has been received well in most quarters in India, which conducted its first nuclear test in 1974, with critics giving it rave reviews and people flocking to cinemas to watch it. He added: “We believe that if you remove this scene and do the needful to win hearts of Hindus, it will go a long way to establish your credentials as a sensitized human being and gift you friendship of billions of nice people.” ![]() In a statement Saturday, India’s Information Commissioner, Uday Mahurkar, said the scene was “a direct assault on religious beliefs of a billion tolerant Hindus,” likening it to “waging a war on the Hindu community.” The scene has caused outrage among some right-wing groups, with a politician from India’s Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) calling the film a “disturbing attack on Hinduism” and accusing it of being “part of a larger conspiracy by anti-Hindu forces.” “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds,” Oppenheimer’s character says, as they resume intercourse. Pugh stops during intercourse and picks up a copy of the Bhagavad Gita, one of Hinduism’s holiest scriptures, and asks Murphy to read from it. ![]() The film tells the story of the atomic bomb through the lens of its creator, Robert Oppenheimer, and the scene in question depicts actor Cillian Murphy, who plays the lead role, having sex with Florence Pugh, who plays his lover Jean Tatlock. Christopher Nolan’s latest blockbuster movie “Oppenheimer” has sparked controversy among the Hindu-right in India, with some calling for a boycott and demanding the removal of a sex scene in which the titular character utters a famous line from the religion’s holy scripture. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Or, you might think you are getting a bargain when you buy the tool, only to find you are going to be expected to pay 50% of the new tool cost to get it sharpened. If you neglect to get answers to these questions, you might be in for a surprise to find you were sold a “disposable” tool that cannot be sharpened at all, or can only be sharpened once. How long will it take to turnaround a tool when sharpening? How many times will I be able to sharpen this tool under normal wear conditions? ![]() To understand the complete picture and compare “apples to apples” when shopping, it is important to ask the following questions: don’t order a tool with 1.1/4″ cut length when you only cut 3/4″ material because that needlessly increases the tool cost. In particular, you want to be certain that there is no more PCD on the tool than actually needed (i.e. When shopping for a PCD tool, it is important to discuss your proposed use and expectations in detail with the tool manufacturer as this allows for selection of the proper PCD grade (grain size), and optimum tool design. Meanwhile, there are a number of synthetic diamond tool blank manufacturers, and the quality, durability and wear resistance is not always equal. The original developers of synthetic diamond were GE (Specialty Materials Division) and DeBeers (Element 6) who pioneered this process and mastered the know-how of synthesizing diamond for industrial cutting applications. Depending on what material is being machined, it is not unheard of for a diamond tool to outrun carbide by a ratio of 300 : 1! Nevertheless, when deciding whether to switch, be conservative in your cost analysis and base your decision on the diamond bit lasting 25x longer than carbide. Examples are: particleboard, MDF, OSB, high pressure laminate, phenolic, fibre glass etc. PCD has an exceptionally high wear resistance factor, in particular with abrasive composite materials that are often difficult to machine with carbide. Polycrystalline diamond is manufactured in a high-pressure, high-temperature laboratory process that fuses diamond particles onto a carbide substrate, which, in turn, allows the diamond to be brazed onto a tool body. So, if you are machining different materials and want one tool to do it all, the diamond tool will not be able to excel as well as it will if you are machining, for instance, 3/4″ MDF all day long. Diamond tooling is not advisable as an all-round tool that will be required to meet demands of a wide range of cutting applications on a day to day basis. First and foremost, think of it as the marathon runner, as it will yield the best results in continuous and steady cutting of homogeneous materials. Understanding the basics of diamond tooling is important when contemplating its use in your own production line. Under the right conditions and with proper maintenance and handling, significant cost savings can be achieved by running polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tooling.

Linear perspective: When we look at a distant object, the image will be smaller to our eye. Moreover, in case, if the object is larger when compared to other objects, then it will be considered as closer. Size Cue: If the size of the object is considered to be larger to the eye, then the object is judged to be larger. That is, when we look at an object with one eye closed, helps to form a three-dimensional view of that object. The DMG also describes that these distances are a limited range, meaning that characters have possibly better senses than these items.Monocular Cues: Here, the cues about depth or distance will be provided only by one eye. Hearing and darkvision out to 120 feet.Hearing and normal vision out to 120 feet.Hearing and normal vision out to 60 feet.Hearing and normal vision out to 30 feet.Some sentient magic items can hear (or see) in a given radius, using the following table: Creatures have disadvantage on any ability check that relies on hearing.Īs markovchain mentioned in a comment, this radius is limited to conversation and does not prevent anyone to hear anything beyond it. It also makes conversation possible only by yelling, and even then only to a maximum distance of 10 feet. The Pandemonium plane is a a very noisy plane, limiting the distance at which characters can hear each other: There are however special cases for which a hearing radius is cleary set (see the following examples). It's all based on the Wisdom (Perception) check, which will be more difficult when trying to spot anything further away. There are no radius specified in the PHB, DMG or MM. Take that as you need to, but it is definitely a starting point. Important: (I just noticed) This information is on a table under the heading "Encounter Distance" which may mean that these numbers are not as suitable for your scenario as they are for figuring out when creatures notice each other. If that is sufficient to call it a Normal noise level then on average (average of 2d6 is 7) the normal hearing range is 70 feet, and there is a very, very good chance the sneak in the bushes will be heard by the blinded character. Obviously by virtue of the Stealth check they are trying to be quiet but on the flip side they were not actually quiet enough. The most important question is whether a Stealth check that is under the Passive Perception score should count as trying to be quiet versus normal noise level. Whether that imposes Disadvantage on Perception checks or a penalty to the character's Passive Perception score is debatable, and it can be negated with Advantage anyways. In your example, obviously the sounds of battle will be Very loud. Either it refers to being able to understand a sound (for instance speech) or being able to hear it at all. The way I read that is that for a given noise, it reaches out to the given distance in feet and after that, well I'm not quite sure. I want to doubt that a DM Screen is anything like an authoritative source, but the D&D 5e Screen (found here courtesy of in the comments) does have suggestions for Audibility ranges: Audible Distance (I don't actually know if it's okay to post this for copyright reasons or whatever so please take this down if that is an issue.) ![]() ![]()

These systems typically offer two-way audio so you can communicate through the camera with whomever it has captured, but they may also have a high-decibel siren that can scare off intruders. The biggest effort you will face in mounting these is having to maybe climb a ladder to install them up at the best vantage point for each area. ![]() The cameras don’t need wiring run to them, as they are powered by batteries and use your home’s wireless network to upload their footage to the provided smart-base. Some cameras have an easy-to-setup camera system. These factors and considerations can seem daunting or complex, but they don’t have to be. “Since a system includes cameras at multiple heights, angles, and locations around (and/or inside) your home, you’ll need to consider how they are powered, how many you’ll need, and how they store video footage,” Liston says. This feature can be handy if your neighbor or a friend drop by while you are out and you can simply tell them you’re out of the house, but it can also allow you to scare off a would-be thief who might be eyeballing a package that was delivered to your front stoop.įor a more robust home security system that covers a larger area of your property, you will want to look at multi-camera system, says our home expert Vicki Liston, writer and producer of the award-winning home improvement show, “On The Fly…DIY.” Some cameras allow you to talk through the camera as well. The alerts will go directly to your phone through an app and you can immediately see who is at your door. ![]() The camera can sense motion and alert you when something triggers it. The right system for you will be determined by your specific needs, and if you find a few differentiating qualities of the current security camera systems that make them the right product for you, you can narrow your selection down to a product that will be ideal.Ī one-camera security setup is often used as a smart doorbell system. The difficulty in setting up a camera system can vary from extremely easy, with wireless and battery-powered options, to more involved installations where you will find yourself drilling holes to run solid wires for power or communication, making a more bulletproof security system. Other systems involve many cameras that you place strategically around your property to capture any entry points to your home or even interior areas of your home where important and valuable items are stored. Security cameras can be a single stand-alone product, perhaps pointed to the front door or porch area, where it can capture things like your mailman or solicitors as they approach your door. Home security cameras are currently more affordable than they ever have been, and they are becoming a fixture in many homes, where they are helping to thwart home invasions or thefts, as well as generally helping the homeowner feel safe and comfortable when it comes to the security of their home. ![]() ![]() ![]() Even supports conversions on any OS, iPhone, and Android device.
